I brought my vehicle into Total Care Transmissions thinking I had a failing alternator. We've been…read morecoming to Julio and his family for a few years now for our everyday cars and once to rebuild our family's classic car. He did a quick preliminary diagnosis and gave me a fair quote for the alternator parts and labor. A few hours later, instead of just doing the expensive repair, he called me and explained that the alternator was actually fine -- the real problem was a wire that was shorting out and causing the symptoms. The repair ended up costing significantly less than expected because they were honest enough to fix the actual issue instead of replacing parts I didn't need. I also had them change the fluids and filters while it was there. He said it looked like my spark plugs needed changing as well. Everything was completed quickly and professionally. It's hard to find shops that are this honest and transparent these days. Highly recommend Total Care Transmissions for their integrity, communication, and quality work.

I thought I got screwed buying a used car from an older guy who seemed legit. I paid $2,300 in…read morecash, got a clean title, and was told all it needed was a CV axle. I figured I could handle that since I was tight on cash, and the repair wouldn't go over $500. After a quick test drive around the block--where I did hear some clicking, but it didn't sound too bad--I decided to buy it. On my 20-mile drive home, that clicking sound started raising doubts. It didn't seem like just a CV axle issue anymore, though I couldn't quite figure out what it was. The engine and transmission were running great, so I thought it had to be something simple, right? I took it to a highly-rated local shop, and they diagnosed the problem as the front differential or transmission (it's an AWD vehicle). Unfortunately, they said they don't work on transmissions. Well, FML. Next, I took it to a well-recommended transmission shop. After a few days, they confirmed the same issue and gave me a rough estimate of $1,900 to $2,500 for a used replacement. No rebuilt or new parts were available. FMLx2. I then brought it to my go-to guy, who's great at swapping parts and doing some diagnostics. He said he could handle the repair for $1,200, including sourcing a used part. But after two weeks of searching, he had no luck. FMLx3. At this point, I did my own research and decided if I could stay under $2,500, the repair would be worth it based on the car's value. I posted a project on Yelp to solicit bids from local shops. That's when Memo from AAMCO reached out. I was hesitant at first, but AAMCO has been around forever, and Memo seemed legit. I figured they'd either be the most expensive or the most reasonable since they specialize in transmissions. I checked reviews on Google and Yelp, and they looked good, so I decided to give Memo a shot. I dropped by to talk to him, and he was great--super communicative and really listened to my situation. I left the car with him, and the next day, I got a call. Of course, the repair exceeded my $2,500 budget. Same diagnosis: front differential/transmission replacement with a used unit. The estimate was $2,800, but they'd thoroughly inspect the replacement to ensure it was good. So close, but still over budget. I told him I'd call back. I was ready to schedule the car for auction and cut my losses, but something in my gut told me the car was worth saving. I called Memo back and asked if he could do it for $2,700. After some discussion, he agreed to work with me. Two days later, the car was ready. Memo had a surprise for me--the replacement transmission came with a new mount, and they managed to bring the total cost just under $2,600, nearly at my budget. THAT is honesty and integrity. I've been driving the car, and it feels exactly how a 20-year-old car in great shape should. No more clicking noises, and it's running beautifully. Since AAMCO handles other types of repairs, Memo and his team have officially become my go-to shop. I highly recommend seeing Memo at AAMCO if you need reliable, trustworthy service.

Very disappointed with dealing with Benny the owner over a repair of my flywheel. I asked to have…read morethe seals replaced since he was removing the transmission. His guys in putting the transmission back pinched the alternator wire and ignition wire between the tranny and block which shorted my system and damaged the alternator. I had it repaired after he told me it wasn't him, so I took it to be repaired to find out it was them he refused to pay repair bill and said to take him to court. Also transmission still leaks after taking it back the second time. It didn't leak when I originally took it to him. They don't take responsibly for the damage they create. I would never recommend to anyone.

He instilled trust in me as many shops charge you a lot of money, and deliver a less costly product. 2) I actually came seven and a half hours from Northern California because I saved nearly $2,000... Where I live in San Jose this would have cost more than double. They were more than fair! 3) The work was done in a timely manner and nothing went over budget. When I flew back to San Diego to pick up my vehicle, They made arrangements to pick me up at the airport. Thank you. 4) They shared photos with me from start to finish. This is a family-owned business that truly cares about their customer and will take personal care in your vehicle. Even though they only have a couple reviews, they have many years of experience! I recommend you give them a chance and you will not be sorry! 5) Last but not least, I believe my vehicle gets even better gas mileage now that I have a newly rebuilt transmission! Do not waste your time to go to Mexico just to save a few hundred dollars. If you go to a reputable shop like Rey Transmission JIREH Service then you have the work guaranteed!
